The Mint temporarily halted the production of Burnished versions in 2009 and 2010, redirecting their focus to BU coins due to the housing crisis. In 2021, a fresh design by Emily Damstra featuring a majestic flying eagle was unveiled. Only Burnished versions were released in the latter half of that year.
